while i was cleaning my room, i came across this forever 21 bag and i noticed that it says "John 3:16" on the bottom folds...

i thought this was really odd...i looked up John 3:16 in my bible and it says
QUOTE
By this we have come to know love, because that one surrendered his life for us; and we are under obligation to surrender [our] souls for [our] brothers.

i don't get it...why would forever 21 have this bible thing on its bags? huh.gif

Yeah. I agree.
Like, In 'n' Out. They have like "John 3;16" or "Revelations" under ther drinks and burgers. Yeah, In 'n' Out's thing is Christian. They were even in 95.9 FM The Fish...(Christian channel.) But people shouldn't really care about that.

what do you mean not care about it? .. but i mean.. yeah the fonder is probably christian (or some religion) but i think that's the most awsomest thing! It's go0d to see soem stores show off there religious sides..

QUOTE(Azarel @ Aug 6 2005, 8:28 PM)
Fashion.

John 3:16 is one of the most well known Bible verses there is, and the one you have quoted is not it. Forever 21 is just being evangelical without being overtly so, in order not to divert customers who are no so fond of Christianity.

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

yeah i totally agree.. and i was thinking the same thing.. that was the wrong verse up there.. lol
